I have some that I made from 5 inch squares. I don't know measurements well enough to find a starting point. Am I making sense?
I guess I am wanting to know if I have HST made from two 5 inch charm pieces, what size should I make the smaller HST's.
Okay, now that I have shown my total lack of quilt-eze and ignorance, please don't throw rotten eggs at me.
Here is a link to the picture of the pattern.

you might want to try a simpler pattern with all the squares the same size. Annie's Choice is my favorite, (wonder why), but the are quite a few very simple blocks that can be set togeher side by side or with sashing.
